Young expressed gratitude for the support from friends and fans who reassured him of their belief in his innocence.
"It's a relief to see the charges being dropped. I wouldn't want anyone to experience what I went through. The positive aspect was receiving so much love and support from others."
The event occurred at a bar called the Dawg House located in the downtown area of Nashville.
Footage from a security camera captures Young behaving calmly before he tries to get the attention of a Tennessee Alcohol Beverage Commission agent by reaching out his arm. The agent responds by pushing Young, causing him to stagger backwards into the bar and fall down.
In the video, Young mentions that he is still trying to make sense of the false accusations and events that have occurred in the past week. He also shares that the support from his fans motivated him to release a new song from his upcoming album ahead of schedule.
The new album "Double Down" will be released this Friday night at midnight.
"Turn up the volume and have a good time. I am grateful for you, I care about you, and I want to thank you," Young expresses.
